How Gas Assists Building Operations.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
NoBLEsvILLE. Ind, Dec. 2.-One of the great
advantages of natural gas is fully illustrated
by the uninterrupted work on the various build
ings now in course of construction in this city
A large brick building for foundry and machine
shop purposes is being finished, and a series of
gas torches are so arranged that the brick-laying
goes on without danger of freezing. Another
instance is the erection of large brick business
building known as the Stephenson Block. Gas
torches are so arranged throughout the block
that plastering is done and thoroughly dried
without the slightest danger of frost freeze
The same thing may be in the various
dwelling g houses in course of erection in this
city. The gas torcl es are LETT burning day and
night, that the whole building. inside and out
is as warm required for successful work, and
the building season is considered open the year
round, and work is in wise delayed by cold
weather. Gas torches put up at trfiing
cost

A remarkable case of restitution is re-
ported from Lyons. For some days
past fine looking, white-bearded old
man, in rags, has stood at one of the en-
frances of the Guillotiere bridge and
extended his hands for aims. On his
breast he wears board ON which are
inscribed the words, "Petroviski, almost
a centenarian, Count of Blanckenberg,
born in Warsaw January, 1889, now re-
duced to craving public charity" This
really unhappy nobleman" actually
fought and bled for Polish independ-
ence, and the loss or confisca-
ton of his fortune sent him down
the easy slope to misery. After
having battled for long time
against adversely, ageand infirmly over
took him, and he had no resource left
but to beg. Another reduced noble
man was buried here in Paris few
days ago, but he had worked hard for a
living to the very last. He was the
Vicomte Richard de Verney, commonly
he lived ''Pere Ludovic." He had not
suffered like the sci0ns of many noble
families in France from the effects of
revolutions, but had lost large fortune
by imprudent speculationS. Undaunted
by adversely, he set brayely to work
and did anything to turn an honest
penny. He was messenger in the Of

he carried about to subscribers. In the
afternoon he sold other journals on the
boulevards, and from o'clock in the

A KIDNAPPING MANIA.
Strange Story of a Strange Wo-
man Who Steals Little Chill

dren.
A queer character came to the atten-
ton of the police yesterday and kept
the detectives chasing all day. She is a
woman apparently light-headed, with
mania for stealing children. Shortly
before o'clock yesterday morning she
drove in hack to the union depot
and went up the ladies' stairway to
the emigrant room up stairs. NelS
Thompson, widower, was there with
his two children, boys of nine and four
years. The woman approached the
youngest child, while the father was
doing, and without saying a word
picked the little fellow up, concealed
him under her shawl and started off,
telling the other child she was going to
get him some candy. The father no
tilted the police in a short time
but the only trace of the strange kid
NAPIER which could be obtained was
that she had been seen walking up Rob-
ert street with the child at 8 o'clock.
Several hackmen were found who had
carried her about town the night before,
and they described her as apparently
twenty-five years old, rather large, with
d lCu 1dCo, anu TWO VI ueT IrOnG
teeth gone. She was shabbily dressed
skirt, with ''nigger-heado Jersey of
black and red, and wore black straw
hat and an ample gray shawl. At 5
O'Clock in the afternoon Policeman
Haney picked up stray child on Bridge
square and sent it to the central station
in the patrol. The child answered the
description of the kipnaped boy, and
the patrol started to take him down to
the depot, where the distracted father
was waiting, for Identification. On the
way down Third street
THE WAGON WAS HAILED
by a woman who claimed to be the
mother of the boy in the wagon, and
Policeman McAllister delivered up his
charge to her. About $50 in the even
ing Policeman COrnick arrested wo-
man with child, near the corner of
Third and Minnesota streets, who an
Swered the description of the strange
kidnaper. When she was taken
to the central station she admitted that
she had stolen the child, and the little
fellow was sent down to the depot in
time to take the evening train for Man.

going. The woman was then identified
as the person who hailed the patrol

Policeman McAllister gave the child.
She explained that she had left the lit

she entered a picture gallery on Bridge
square to see if they could get their pic
lures taken together. When she re-
turned the child was gone. Policeman
Haney having sent him into the central
station. Nothing can be learned about
the woman herself. She tells differ
ent story with every breath, and
there is little doubt but that
she is crazy. She says her
name is Mary Zantz, and that
she has been in ST. Paul about two
months, during which time she has
worked at restaurants and as sewing
girl. She says she has sister living in
the city who is a sporting woman, and
she gave, the detectives several adj
dresses where she said she would find
other children whom she had stolen, but
none of which proved correct.

union reported business not very brisk.
The case which was brought before the
supreme court by the international
union, restraining manufacturers and
dealers in cigars from using a counter
felt label of the central body, was de-
clded in its favor. whereat union cigar
makers are much elated, and promise to
be vigilant in discovering and
prosecuting all parties who are
using the counterfeit union label.
Carpenters reported business fair;
printing fair and improving; plumbers
busy, good wages and nine hours. Re-
ports from other trades were not so

ment.
A delegate from Washington
assembly rose to protest against the
action Of Self-appOinted committee of
workingmen who were urging sigma
lures to petition asking the governor
to interfere and prevent the reduction
of freight pates, claiming that it would
work lnlmically to wOrkingmen.
THE PETITION.
Following is the Petition:
To His Excellency, the governor of state of
Minnesota: Ithaving come to our knowl-
plating a reduction of rates for railroads
doing business in this state, we as citizens of
the state of Minnesota believe that a reduc-
ton i'll freight rates would have tendency
to depress trade and reduce the wages of
workingmen. We believe that where one
class OF wage workers are benefited by the
injury of another class, it is not by any
means fair or just; therefore,
Resolved. That the interest of the en-
ployes of railway corporations should be as
carefully guarded as those of any other class
and any reduction of rates as will reduce the
results feared, it is an unjust discrimination
against the army OF labor employed by such
corporations, and direct blow at their well
fard and must produce serious results.
Resolved, That we will not give our coun-
tenance and support to those who do not re-
gard this as their plain duty; therefore be it
Of Resolved That we as ei t Of the state
governor, to investigate the aforesaid reduc-
ton, and where reduction is necessary to do
justice to all parties, that the commissioners
give reason for such reduction.
ITS ORIGIN.
In the debate which followed, the
burden of argument was in proof that
the present freight schedule on railroads
in Minnesota is load on the agricult-
ural producers of the state. and blow
at fair carrying competition. Wage
earnerS and producers in cities would
be benefited in proportion as the farmer
is benefited by cheaper transportation
OF the products of the soil to a market;
hence just and equitable freight rate
is demanded. The wages of railroad
employees have never been raised by any
increase of traffic or freight tariff on
railroads. One delegate stated that he
had knowledge of the source of this
petition. 1t came from the office of the
general manager of the Milwaukee road
and was first circulated in the shops
and yards of that company. A great
many who signed it did so with reluct-
ance or through misrepresentation of its
verely denounced. and the press COM
mittee was instructed to publish it's con-
demnation of the petition in The

MILE AIMEE'S FUNERAL.
The Poor Little Woman Buried in
Her Own Flower Garden.

Her Own Flower Garden.
Paris Cable to New York Herald.
There were not forty mourners at the
funeral of Aimee, which came off at the
Church of Notre Dame, at Auteuil. The
weather was gray and chilly; the
church, newly built, was cold, damp
and cherries.
At quarter to twelve small, shabby
looking hearSe, drawn by two very old,
spawned black horses, turned slowly
into the Place de Notre Dame. Behind
the hearse walked one solitary mourner,
M. Tricou, the dead actress step father.
Upon the hearse rested six wreaths s.
two large ones, made of viOlets and
white roses; two smaller ones, made of
very small ones. made of lilies of the
valley. The large wreaths bore the in
Scription, ga notre aime."
Upon the church steps stood twenty
or thirty ladies and gentlemen, the lat
ter reverentially removing their hats as
the modest hearSe-the funeral was of
the category technically known as first
class-drew up before the church.
AT 1890 the venerable priest handed
the silver holy water brush, with which
he had asperged the coffin, to M. Tricou,
who, in the capacity of chief mourner,
also Sprinkled the coffin. In turn each
of the Twenty-Five mourners did the
same as they silently walked around the
remains of the once popular actress,
which, in few moments later, were
brought out of the church and replaced
in the fifth-class hearse, drawn by aged
black horses. A few yards behind the
hearse stood an omnibus, bearing large
inscription in red letters, "Joinyille-le-
POnt.''
About dozen mourners climbed into
the omnibus and drove off to the Care
de PEST bound for Nogent, near Join
vllle-le-Pont, on the Marine, where
Aimee owned Epretty little country
place, in the garden of which her re-
mains were buried.
